They Call Us Misfits
It is a hard kick from the bottom up.
A film where the very parliament of the street smashes the display window of the welfare state. A film about the rebels Kenta and Stoffe, to all apperances happy and carefree. They chase girls, drink and smoke hash. And they amuse themselves by making fun of the white-collar workers on their way to work in the morning. But behind their ligth-hearted facade there lurks a dark threat. If the film´s opening scene is a jubilant euphoria, the final scene resonares in a minor key. A 30-second sex scene had some TV and radio personalities in a twist, but the move to censor the film came to naught and Misfits was released in its original version.
